Help with camellias please
My camellias ate in pots and have done really well this year
I’m not sure what to do with them now. Should I use any fertilizer and do they need repotting ? Advice very welcome

they would benefit from a feed designed for them really. Also they will need plenty of water through the summer into the autumn as this is when next years buds are formed. So perhaps into bigger pots or even better would be into the ground providing your soil is acidic.

Thank you very much. I’m afraid it’ll have to be bigger pots not in the soil it’s just full of bricks and big stones and it’s taking a long time to make any headway.

August time, a feed of something with lots of potash in it; perhaps a tomato feed. This will encourage the formation of flower buds for next year. Do this two or three times until the end of September.
